This Project is part of a student project from Ecole Centrale de Lyon.



Today, LPE can only be applied to single path. The goal of this project is to enable LPE for groups of paths.

There may be a default implementation that does LPE recursively on each path but many behavior will have to be effect dependent.

For example "Bend path": if you apply it recursively, then all paths of the group will be bent along the path from start to end. We have to consider the bounding box of the group and to generate new coordinates for each path.

Main points are :

  • a. how to put it in SVG
  • b. how to render it in inkscape
  • c. what happens when a path in a group with LPE has its own LPE applied (chaining?)
